Joe R. Long, and Teresa Long v. United States
Joe R. LONG, and Teresa Long, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. UNITED STATES of America, Defendant-Appellee
Opinion
PER CURIAM:
The district judge, after a full bench trial, decided this income tax refund suit adversely to the taxpayers. The suit was generated by the Commissioner’s rejection of the taxpayers’ attempted deduction of one-half of the alleged losses of the husband’s joint venture with Mr. Long’s former law partner, Jake Jacobsen, relative to the operation of two apartment complexes. The Longs paid the deficiency, filed an unsuccessful claim for refund, and timely brought suit.
The judgment below for the United States was supported by the district judge’s careful, complete and well-documented Memorandum Opinion, reported at 451 F.Supp. 1009 (D.C.1976). Our consideration of the briefs, the record, and oral argument persuades us that the judgment was correct, for the reasons stated in the opinion of the district court, which we adopt.
AFFIRMED.
